As Lisa has written, we "met" on the EtsyMom team blog and have hit it off since we have so much in common. In truth I have been a silent follower of Lisa's store since she has been featured on so many of the BIG blogs and in all the magazines. I just love her gorgeous illustrations and delicate colors. Not to mention my letterpress infatuation.

Read Lisa's blog post about Sweetbeets as affordable art. When I get myself along to Ikea top on my list of things to buy will be Ribba frames since everyone mentions them. I agree wholeheartedly that Sweetbeets cards are almost too precious to use.

Another great item that I recently discovered are Sweetbeets gift tags (pictured). All of Lisa's cards are printed on 100% post-consumer recycled card and occasionally she finds very obvious dark marks interfere with the design. She hit upon the very excellent idea of punching the cards out to make little gift tags. I love this "no waste" idea.
